Throughout the history of their relationship EJ has at times gone after people Sami cares about - John, Bo, Kayla, Lucas, Rafe, etc. It's nothing new. And encouraging Chad to seek revenge against Gabi is barely in the same league. EJ isn't setting out to hurt her himself - he's simply giving his brother advice that is in character for who he is. And EJ knows that Gabi basically got away free and clear with setting things in motion that not only ended with Chad losing his love (not to mention people being killed). It makes sense to me that EJ wouldn't have any qualms about telling Chad to go for it in regard to getting some revenge. It will no doubt blow up in one or both of their faces - but it definitely fits who he is and doesn't really have any reflection on the fact that he still loves Sami, just as he always has.

All good reasons why they shouldn't be together as a couple. But honestly, I'm thrilled about him encouraging Chad to get revenge on Gabi because I know without a doubt it'll be the reason why ejami comes to an end and Safe will start up again..

Exactly. I'm hoping there is no "ejami" to bust up in the first place other than a very weird friendship.

I'm not one of those who think it's OK for Ej to be egging Chad on to do something to the pregnant Gabi. Even if he doesn't know she's pg. it's just wrong on all sorts of levels. If Chad gets thrown in jail over whatever EJ tells him to do, Daddy Stefano might step in to deal with EJ. :cheers:

I can hear it now: "Elvis, apologize to your brother. Meanwhile, I will make sure that annoying Hernandez bitch is handled in the DiMera way!"
